Artist Statement

The series Why Can’t I Just Eat Like a Normal Person? was based on the premise that there is no such thing as “normal” when it comes to eating habits. After talking to my models about what they perceived to be their own unique relationships with food, I translated their real experiences and emotions into fabricated scenarios, using the photograph to express in a single frame the poignancy—and, at times, absurdity—of these relationships.
